I'm confused by both the original post and the subsequent replies.
What does this have to do with weather data or with eQUEST?<br>
<br>
Weather files do not list the ASHRAE climate region. If you got a
weather file from the EERE site, then that's an EnergyPlus EPW
weather file. The ASHRAE Climate Zone shown on an EPW STAT file is
calculated by the EnergyPlus weather processor in converting the
source weather file into an EPW. It has no bearing on the weather
file itself. If you think that the Climate Zone is in error, that
only means<br>
the algorithm used by the EnergyPlus weather processor to calculate
the ASHRAE Climate Zone may be faulty for international locations.
<br>
<br>
Referring to this as a bug in eQUEST, or suggesting the problem
might be the eQUEST *.BIN weather file are further off the mark.<br>

Subject: [Bldg-sim] International Climate Zone
specification<br>
Dear all,<br>
<br>
I am using eQUEST for a project in Spain and I have
used the weather data from the EERE (Energy Efficiency
& Renewable Energy) website. The climate zone
described in the weather file doesn't seem to agree
with the one I calculate according to the ASHRAE 90.1
description for International climate zones, based on
the precipitation levels. Has anyone had any similar
problems with weather data outside the US? Any
suggestions about dealing with this?<br>
<br>
Thank you in advance.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Eleni<br>
